A MAJOR waterside development project in Runcorn made up of apartments and shops is being previewed at a public open day on Saturday, July 15, from 10.30am.

Bryant Homes is hoping its 466 oneand two-bedroom flats and retail outlets, to be built in Mersey Road near the centre of the Old Town, will do for Run-corn what Salford Quays did for Manchester.

The opening launch at the project site, which is known as The Deck, will give potential homebuyers their first chance to view development models and plans, see price lists, tour a 'mock-up' compartment and make an early purchase of one of the new houses.
